MITSUBISHI RALLIART READY TO CONQUER AXCR 2025

Team Mitsubishi Ralliart will officially comeback to Asia Cross Country Rally (AXCR) aiming for the championship with Mitsubishi Triton. 

The Asia Cross Country Rally (AXCR), one of Asia’s most prestigious cross-country rallies with a 30-year history. This year will officially kick off from August 8 to 16, 2025, starting and finishing in Pattaya, Thailand. This year’s route spans nearly 2,500km, presenting numerous diverse and challenging terrains. To conquer the top spot, all teams will face rigorous tests of vehicle speed and endurance, combined with the drivers’ experience, adaptability, and courage. 

Driven by the determination to conquer the champion, team Mitsubishi Ralliart pours all the efforts into preparation for AXCR 2025. All the participating Triton have undergone a rigorous and thorough preparation and testing process. Right in June, the team began training on courses and terrains in central Thailand that precisely simulate the harsh competition conditions. This crucial preparation ensures the Mitsubishi Triton will deliver maximum performance and proven durability across every challenging stretch of this year’s rally. 

Sharing about this preparation, Team Director of Team Mitsubishi Ralliart, Mr. Hiroshi Masuoka stated “This marks our third rally with the new Triton. It has demonstrated its great potential in a wide range of situations, including acceleration performance on high-speed courses, handling on technical courses, and off-road performance on extremely rough terrain such as mud and river crossings. This time, in addition to increasing engine torque and improving durability, we have refined the chassis and other components to create a car capable of winning it all. Our team has grown in experience and unity, and we are in the best shape yet to reclaim the overall title after three years. So, please stay tuned – we expect great outcomes.” 

Building on the legacy of 12 Dakar Rally Championship and impressive achievements in grueling off-road rallies like the AXCR and the World Rally Championship (WRC), Mitsubishi Motors continuously accumulated experience and applied improvements to refine our commercial vehicles. The 6th generation Mitsubishi Triton, a leading pickup truck in its segment, features a completely new, robust, and distinctive exterior and interior design. Its longer and wider body provides enhanced comfort and superior cargo capacity, powered by a new 2.4L 4N16 MIVEC Bi-Turbo Diesel engine. It boasts an upgraded chassis and suspension system, seven versatile drive modes with the renowned Super Select 4WD-II system, Active Yaw Control, and the advanced driver assistance system – MITSUBISHI MOTORS SAFETY SENSING (MMSS).
